What makes you all SO sure that the Lions aren’t gonna rough you up too? Not a Lions, Packers, OR KC fan (if you look at my screen name…..Ravens fan though!) I think the Lions defense is stout and whatever they do to the Bears, they are gonna do to the Packers too!! Dont get too comfortable!! You all damn well better worry!!

The Patriots defense is horrendous.

On the other side, the Lions look every bit the legit team people are touting them as

Check the score from Thanksgiving, when the game counted.

U MAD?

0-16 was 5 years ago get some fu**ing new material.
This team is NOWHERE near that team in terms of talent. Mayhew (he’s the dude running the team for all you idiots who follow the NFL in passing and then CLAIM to know what you are talking about. Back up your bullsh** with fact, could ya try it JUST ONCE??????) and Schwartz (more help moron, he’s the head coach of the Detroit Lions) has done everything right so far and this team WILL be a playoff contender, maybe not this year, but I’d put good money on it that they make them next year.
As entertaining as you (you know who you are) are, wouldn’t it feel good to just one time investigate your “point” before you blather on and make yourself look like a complete Millen (thats Detroit speak for fu**ing clueless jackass”)?
That is all
DETROIT F’N LIONS
Coming soon to destroy and offense near you

I know, EVERYONE that goes 4-0 in the preseason finishes 0-16 I mean, LOOK AT ALL OF EM!!! If you lack an eye for talent so bad that would dare compare this team to the 08 team then my friend, go to Vegas and drop it all on the Lions going 0-16. If you’re not willing to do that [or, the more likely scenario that being you don't have jack worth a dam TO gamble with...considering I don't doubt for a minute you'd be dumb enough to do it otherwise] than STFU

A bunch of backups and they still gave the Patriots a fight for well over a half.

Nothing better to me then seeing Brady pout on the sidelines.

speaking of that, flash1283, we assume you mean “sense” not “sence” but again it shows the type of pats bandwagon fan we’ve seen for several years.

Truth is, Mr. Giselle is on the wrong side of 30, has a lot of non-football commitments because of his wife (hence missing the jets-colts game…Rex may have been kidding but it hurt cuz it cut close to the truth that Peyton would’ve been watching)..and he’s already prepping for life after football. He will put up great numbers for another couple years in regular season, but he really has shown no heart/balls in the last three years when it comes to nut crunching time.
Just sayin

I get the health factor. But many of his injuries have been on the flukier side. If he stays healthy hes almost a guarantee for 30-35 TDs. Hell, Shaun Hill was throwing for 3 TDs a game in that offense last year.

Rodgers and Cutler have to play against that Dline twice a year without that pro bowl offensive line that brady has.

That’s fine…..

Broncos fans should know that Tony Sheffler looks great for Detroit!!

Another serviceable player they let get away!!

Those silly Broncos!!

Scheffler has always been a nice player. That said he wanted out of his former team if I am not mistaken. I don’t think he was a fan of McDaniels. Smart guy, that Scheffler.

Very good game by Detroit. And I agree with several posters that people should stop making excuses for NE. I HATE excuses. It’s preseason, so NOBODY has or uses all their star players . Give credit where credit is due…great game by the Lions. Can’t wait for the regular season to start! Also, hope Welk is OK…that guy is as tough as they come, makes his living going over the middle and running bubble screens. Wish him a quick recovery.

The Lions were also missing key many starters. The Lions also were running a basic defense. Also it was hilarious how the second string offense marches on the Patriots first string D and Dierdorf starts talking about how the Patriots were missing people. Um, excuse me Dan, if it wasn’t Detroit’s SECOND string offense scoring the TD then your argument would be valid. And then when Brady throws his first TD it was against Detroit’s second stringers and Dierdorf makes no mention of that.

But at the end of the day, it is preseason and I don’t think anyone truly thinks the Lions are better than the Patriots. It’s just funny how everyone feels the need to come to the Patriots defense for a preseason game.

I seriously will pray for Welker’s health – I would hate to see such a standup guy get a bad injury – or any player for that matter. But I’ve got to say – if Welker was a Steeler, PFT would be calling for a fine and a suspension for leading with the head right now, even if he were injured.

God speed Welker – heal fast. Besidesn when the Jets beat the Pats, I don’t want to hear any excuses.
